An accurate modeling of soil-structure interfaces is very important in order to obtain realistic
solutions of many soil-structure interaction problems. To study the mechanical …

The monotonic and cyclic behavior of a soil–structure interface has a significant effect on the
mechanical response of a soil–structure interaction system. Thus, the behavior of the …

Concrete cracking is a common structural defect of segmentally lined tunnels. In this article,
the tunnel between Shangteng station and Dadao station of Fuzhou metro line one, which …

During soil freezing, the frozen strength of the soil-structure interface measured as shear
strength is critical to the evaluation of the anti-heave performance of the structure. Hence …

Various modified direct shear tests on the interface between calcareous sand and steel with
different degrees of roughness were conducted in this article, and the different interface …

Although the shear behaviors of silt–structure interfaces are critical in engineering practice,
they have not been extensively investigated systematically. In this study, the influence of the …

Direct shear experiments were carried out both to investigate the interaction between a
predominantly cohesion less soil and in-situ concrete and the validation of the tangent of two …

The shear behavior of soil-concrete interface is mainly affected by the surface roughness of
the two contact surfaces. The present research emphasizes on investigating the effect of …

A state-of-the-art review of the behavior of interfaces between granular materials and solid
structural components is presented. The review includes both the experimental and …

The frozen soil–structure interface is the key connecting component between structures and
the soil in the permafrost regions. The soil–structure interface is usually subjected to seismic …
